Trying to drum up some silver linings

I bought my airline ticket home.

The good thing is that it’s cheaper than any option I could come up with- because I would have been using all my money as seed money for a house and car, ect. This way I’ll likely be able to use the old car to get to and from work, and I’ll have a savings to build up off of.

Also, I just got an email that I might be able to get my cap and gown for free, so I might actually go to my own graduation
